After we've filled most of the depth problems...we need a G/C .


Jordan Black

infact..theinsiders.com rate Tucker as the top G/C prospect after Steinbach..ahead of Manuai and all the others, he's HUGE! and would be a steal.

Also that guy Mahan is supposed to be decent.

by TFY Draft Preview

Four year starter who played tackle as a red-shirt freshman before being pushed into guard. First team All-Conference selection as a senior.



Name: Torrin Tucker School: Southern Miss Year: 5Sr

Ht: 6-6 Wt: 328 40: 5.38 Pos: G

Bio: Four year starter who played tackle as a red-shirt freshman before being pushed into guard. First team All-Conference selection as a senior.

Pos: Physically gifted run blocking guard who dominates opponents at the point of attack. Plays with forward lean, gets leverage on opponents and blocks down well or engulfs defenders at the point of attack. Powerful and drives opponents off the line of scrimmage opening holes for the running game, yet at the same time can shuffle and slide his feet, block in space and pick up stunts or blitzes. Also effective on the second level getting out to annihilate linebackers. Moves well for a big man and does not lumber around the field. Jilts opponents with his hands and torments defenders when he plays with a nasty streak.

Neg: Not quick off the snap into his blocks nor does he display good mental nuances of his position. Eases up on occasion and does not always work to finish the play. Over weight at times and has difficulty adjusting.

Analysis: If he makes football a top priority and stays focused on the game, an immediate starter who should have a long and productive career at the next level. Pre-draft workouts and more importantly, interviews, will dictate where he is selected in April
